Ingredients
  

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs

1 ripe peach, diced

1/4 cup peach preserves

2 tablespoons sriracha (adjust to taste)

1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

4-6 slider buns (preferably brioche)

1 cup arugula or mixed greens

1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese (optional)

Olive oil for grilling

Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, combine diced peach, peach preserves, sriracha, apple cider vinegar, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken thighs, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.

    Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Brush the grates with olive oil to prevent sticking.

      Grill the Chicken: Remove the chicken from the marinade and shake off any excess. Place the thighs on the grill and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and they have nice grill marks. Baste with leftover marinade during the last few minutes of grilling for extra flavor.

        Toast the Buns: While the chicken is grilling, cut the slider buns in half and lightly toast them on the grill for a minute until golden brown.

          Assemble the Sliders: Once the chicken is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into strips. Layer arugula or mixed greens on the bottom half of each bun, followed by the sliced chicken. Top with crumbled feta cheese (if using), and place the top half of the bun over it.

            Serve and Garnish: For a fresh twist, garnish each slider with a few mint leaves if desired. Serve the sliders warm alongside your favorite dipping sauce or additional peach preserves for a sweet and spicy kick.
